    How To Raise The Topic Of Behaviour Change & Determine If They're Ready To Change

    Behaviour change conversations can be tricky, but one part most at risk of going wrong and derailing the conversation is raising the topic of the behaviour itself, especially if the person in front of you isn't expecting it.
